• The Master of Public Affairs is the first graduate public affairs program to blend academic theory with practical experience —preparing students to make an immediate impact in the world.
  • Students can earn the Master of Public Affairs one of two ways: through a two-year, full time residential program in Austin or a 15-month track that includes living and working in DC during the final semester.
  • Both programs provide a foundation for understanding the economic, political, analytical and management principles of policymaking.
